Playing the Monday & Wednesday Lotto

To win the Monday & Wednesday lottery, players must choose six main numbers out of 45. However, two more balls take part in each draw. These balls are additional and are drawn upon a lotto drum after the six major balls.

There are seven prize tiers in the lottery. To win the top prize of the first tier, your entry needs to match all 6 winning numbers in a single draw. You can also win other prizes even if you match only 1 or 2 numbers plus 2 additional numbers.

You can either choose the numbers yourself or use the “Easy-Pick” option, which means the system will automatically generate random numbers for you.

The Jackpot is won only if you match all six primary numbers. There are also quite impressive rewards for matching five numbers plus one additional number.
